You’d never guess it’s rain gear.
As Murphys law would have it, if youve forgotten your rain protection, then its bound to pour.

The source of this fashionable yet tactical gear?
It was worn on the streets by Irish locals and available in even the smallest of village boutiques.
Snap-front Rain Jacket
Nordstrom
Lets start with the most common waterproof piece: the rain jacket.
Nordstrom
Because this jacket is unisex, itdoeshave a boxy fit.
However, reviewers suggest checking the size chart and potentially sizing down if you prefer a more fitted look.
“10 out of 10, best rain jacket ever.
Nordstrom
I get compliments every time I wear it.
This coat is lightweight with a bit of stretch and packs down easily.
The extra length will keep your legs and backside dry when walking through rain.

String Waterproof Jacket-Parka
This knee-length rain jacket has a drawstring waist for a more custom fit.
Waterproof details include elastic cuffs and a front zipper closure protected by an additional layer of snaps.
You’re supposed to use the zipper first.

A back placket helps with ventilation and makes this a great coat for warmer weather where you need breathability.
Hidden snap closures keep the jacket closed, and under-arm eyelets help ventilate in hot, humid conditions.
This jacket is a long, knee-length women’s raincoat.
Nordstrom
Despite the extra length, it still has an elegant drape, and the fabric has a slight stretch.
A belt helps make this look like a trenchcoat, adding extra shape at the waist.
Plus, it snaps to the coat so you dont have to worry about losing it.

Rain Cape
Rains
The Cape is one of my favorite Rains designs.
It rethinks the poncho into something youd see on a runway at fashion week.
Thumbholes keep the fabric from blowing around when youre on windy cycle rides.
Nordstrom
The backpack has a signature Scandinavian minimalist aesthetic made with Rains' signature waterproof fabric.
The backpack flap closes with magnets, protecting a slim compartment with a laptop sleeve and a zippered pocket.
